Blood Red Throne and I have had a somewhat complicated relationship over the years, largely due to the band’s vocal approach, more specifically, the blend of highpitched screams and deep guttural growls. Personally, I’ve always felt the band’s music would benefit from focusing exclusively...

Album EK Even Knudsen Updated April 11, 2026 2401 1 2

Philadelphia‑based progressive death metal outfit Burial In The Sky showed plenty of promise on their first two full‑length albums, but they hadn’t quite reached their full potential. Their third release, The Consumed Self, is a different story entirely. This time, the band delivers an...

First thing first, I've never heard of Russian act Bufihimat before and the only reason I decided to give this album a shot was the fact that it's beeing released trough Willowtip records which is often a clear indication of quality. After having heard...

Album EK Even Knudsen Updated September 09, 2021 2029 1 2

With albums like ´The Aura´and ´Earthborn Evolution´ in their backlog Canadian technical death metallers Beyond Creation really had a mountain to climb to follow up their previous efforts. I´ve read a few early reviews of this album around the internet and most of them...

Album EK Even Knudsen Updated November 30, 2015 6582 0 1

First of all this is not a new album, not even close, and we’re not talking a re-issue either but an album originally released back in 1983. These Bochum based Germans came together as a band in 1978, and managed to release two full...
